dedicated bulk carriers

One of the problems with the bulk trades (as with oil transportation) is that ships normally carry cargo one way but return in ballast because there is nothing to take back. However, oil/bulk/ore (OBO) ships have never become as popular as dedicated bulk or oil carriers, partly because their complexity increases building and operating costs.

single load bulk carriers

Something like this; although I've seen transporteur en vrac for bulk carrier. What it means, I think, is a term covering ships like oil tankers (petroliers)which are basically "empty shells" for single contents. Basically, you pump the contents in at one end and pump them out at the other. As "empty shells" they are easy to build compared with other more sophisticated types of shipping.

single cargo ship / vessel

Or: a ship with a single cargo hold

Web examples:
A single cargo ship coming into New York Harbor can release as much pollution as 350000 current-model-year cars
Loading and offloading a single cargo ship alone can take two or three days
Consider containerized shipping, in which a single cargo ship can transport thousands of containers
An explosion of a single cargo ship of LNG could easily cause a 20 Mega Ton blast!
